speck cases for galaxy tab

http://www.speckproducts.com/ipad/samsung-galaxy-tab.html
Anyone have any experience with this brand, the candy shell line in particular?

I had a Speck Candyshell for my iPhone 3GS and it was a pretty darn good case. I loved it and would buy it for my galaxy tab if I hadn't already ordered bodyguardz for my tab.

I am very much hoping to have some experience with the candy shell line from speck. Just as soon as they get it back in stock I will be ordering it. Until then I bought a cheaper version to keep the tab safe.

Hi can you post some pics of the candyshell please? Just to what it looks like...is it something similar to the Otterboc Commuter case?

I have the white candy shell from speck. I really like it fairly easy to put on and take off and the buttons are still easy to press and you can get the sd card out with the case still on.

Picked one up off Amazon and decided to snap a few pics today:

Speck Case is far SUPERIOR!!!
Okay, I just received the Speck case for my GT and I have to say after owning a pretty good selection of cases from the Incipio SiliCrylic to the leather folio case to the OEM silicone and even the Otterbox Defender, this case is hands down the best case thus far.
It is well made, fits very snug and secure, the hard candy shell is fantastic and provides great grip-ability. Not to mention it slides easily into pockets and looks amazingly stylish. Great industrial design. Did I mention it adds no bulk what so ever... Kudos Speck!!!

If it only had a kick stand I would have got one

Does anyone know of a hard case like this with a built in kickstand? I've only seen one and it kind of looks a little cheap (it's mostly clear with colored rubber on the sides).
I'd love to ditch my book style case for something slimmer, but I need a kickstand.

Could always use it in Combination wit the Arkon Stand:

That's what I'm considering. I already have the stand and its pretty good.

Very Nice Case For Very Low Price

Okay guys, I got this case about a month ago now and have dropped my phone about 4 or 5 times from my waste to the sidewalk and absolutely nothing has happened to my phone.
I highly reccomend this case.

It also has a cool little kickstand on it for when you are watching videos, surfing the web with various mousepads, keyboards, etc.
And don't forget gaming with a bluetooth gamepad.
It also comes with a cool little beltclip, very handy id you dont want to shove this beast of a phone into your pocket,
Very nice case, only for about $8.00 USD.
Here is a link if you would like to purchase one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Rugge...435987?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2ec37feb13
In my opinion, it was MORE than worth the $8 I payed.
Hope you guys enjoy

I know this is offtopic but that beltclip is exactly what Otterbox Commuter case needs, take notice Otterbox

Yea that's the only reason I didn't get an Otterbox.
I'm sorry I couldn't post photos of the beltclip but nonetheless, very useful.

ive got one of those cases. its definitely one of the best cases ive ever bought from ebay. its quite durable and offers a lot of drop protection.
the only thing i didnt like was the stand mechanism. when its fully locked open, it feels like its going to snap when i try to close it. aside from that, definitely worth the money.

That's a brick... excessively thick for my taste...

You bought a Galaxy Note II...
I dont see how size of the case would come into play at all, you have the biggest phone on the market.

The phone might be big but it's pretty thin width-wise which makes it easier to use etc

Does the silicone pick up lint?
Would you say this case is as thick as the commuter or is it thinner?
Thanks

The silicone does not pickup lint.
I keep the kickstand on it at all times so its like a hard case with a jelly core.
Very good resistance if you drop your device.
It is quite thin and only bulks your device about a quarter to a half inch more.

If the op is dropping their phone 5 times a month, a brick case is probably worth it. Lol

The one you pick. It's a very subjective answer. Case A is best for me, but case B may be best for you.

haha yes it does begin again. . . those are all good, but for only 8.50 off Amazon or even less sometimes on eBay, the Duzign Sentinel has to receive strong consideration. If only the Seidio clip was compatible with it, this would be my top one. The TPU case is very firm, yet malleable enough for great protection and the exoskeleton provides added structure and defense while being very cool, and it comes with a serviceable kickstand. Just don't order the white/black one--the white TPU case gets dirty very fast. I am rocking the black on black and it is my daily driver.

That one's the best but we use different ones because we prefer to use the vastly inferior cases instead.

these are totally awesome

mercury slim fit silicone case ftw. i typically like hard cases because i feel that they provide superior protection but with the note 2 being so large, anything other than this case make the phone unbearable. besides, it's cheap as well. best thing to do: have the case/screen-protector for the oops moments and every time other than that, hold on to the phone for dear life.

Hey OP, did you bother to look at the 3 dozens threads already started about the exact same question? You couldn't toss a rock in this forum without hitting a case thread, and every single one of the is riddled with pics, reviews, and user comments. Do us all a favor and search before posting.

It's obvious that this is a non responsive OP, just let it go.

Puregear jelly black licorice case

I ordered this, it came today. The case is pretty nice. It has a slim profile, tpu backing with rigid sides. I'll have pics up in the morning if anybody is interested. 18.99 on ebay
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

so here are pictures of the case, sorry im a little late with getting these up. The case is a rigid TPU style case, clear on the back with back accents on the sides. It is a tight fit with the phone, but once in its very secure. The case doesnt wrap around the curvature of the phone all the way, so it looks like there will be no issue with a tempered glass screen protector. All the ports have access, including the IR port for the TV app. There is no lensing issues with the camera, or flash reflection, which is nice. The only real downside to this case is getting used to how far you need to press your finger to use the power switch, but im over that. there is also the slightest of gaps in the top of the case by the power button, but its a non-issue for me. Overall im happy with the case.

Thanks for the pictures, the case looks great! Does it add a lot of bulk or weight to the phone?

its a little thicker, but if i dont have something solid, ill do some foolish thing, all in ll its not bad

I had that case and sent it back for refund. It's a great case but I like a little more edge lip than this had. It's very low profile with excellent grip. I am opting between the clear UAG case or the supcase that I'm still waiting on to be delivered.

Look at the thread regarding Slickwraps before you make a purchase from them.

[JTC One M8]

I have used decal girl on previous devices(psp, ps3, Ipod touch), they've been around for a long time. Decals are good high quality material, they'll last a long time.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app

I used Decal girls for my PS Vita they're pretty good quality.
Customer support is top notch, In my stupidity I tore a corner of my skin, contacted support, took picture of damage, and paid (3$) shipping and got another set sent to me.
Slickwrap on the other hand I've used for my HTC one M8, Price wise for skin it's pretty expensive, Quality wise it's on par with it's competitors. I do like them for their accuracy in the fine details though.

I guess I'm biased

I got my DG skin...It's not bad but I liked my SW skin more... It wrapped around the sides and had a better texture for grip

I've bought a skin off decal girl and i've made my own. Received it few days ago and I love it.

Ive never tried slickwraps so i can't say they're any better, but close inspection on decal girls pictures shows that the m8's side are uncovered, the ipod touch was the same way(close inspection). Also as i said, they've been around for a very long time and have an extensive collection. The skin holds up well throughout the unpredictable weather in CO. May warp if overexposed to heat, especially in CO's summer weather, otherwise it should be fine... Just a heads up
